Oh yeah, and you can reload them with credit cards, which may be helpful for a number of possible reasons. Someone asked me where to get them. I got mine from

Spread the love: The Rainbow scrip cards can be reloaded indefinitely and you keep giving 10% to BVHM every time you do so. We bought a bunch of pre-loaded Rainbow scrip cards, used them up, and are giving the empty cards to our friends to load up and use and now they give 10% to BVHM every time they reload their cards!

Scrip cards for Rainbow Grocery (located at 13th and Folsom) earn 10% for Buena Vista Horace Mann ALL THE TIME.

Safeway usually gives from 1% for monthly purchases up to $300 to 4% for purchases over $600. (Even during the promotion period, only certain products contribute 10%.)

Rainbow is worker-owned and worker-managed, which means all the money we give Rainbow goes to the workers, instead of going to investors, and mostly stays in our town, rather than mostly leaving town for the Safeway headquarters (in Pleasanton, I think). Rainbow produce is marked with the specific farm that supplies it, so you know exactly where it comes from. Because Rainbow need not distribute profits to investors, and has no high-paid management, it can and does charge reasonable prices for high-quality food.
